How many members in this wonderful international group are willing to keep communication alive even when our 2008 CAE course has come to its end...?
It would be great to go on being in contact, participating in discussions, allowing everybody to share experiences and ideas on topics we could all suggest, using English!
I'm willing to receive your positive answers, and do hope they are many!!
Best wishes from Rosario,
Rita

My very dear 2009 students,
We had our last class together last Tuesday, and I can only say with regret that our "
Sharing Learning" experience is over. As I'm writing this lots of good memories crowd my mind while I say "
good bye"
for now.
But I'm not saying
goodbye for good. I know, after "
Sharing Learning" for nine months together, that the time we spent working all of you and me, both f2f and online, was an enriching and memorable time of understand…

Follow instructions which tell you to choose between two templates, choose your actors --one, in this case-- and then write on ONE of the following topics:
* Convince teachers that they should use I…

Social Networks
Do the names MySpace, Facebook, Orkut, etc. ring a bell? They probably do because they are some of the most popular sites on the internet today. These sites are all called 'social networking' sites because they help people meet and discuss things online. Each of these social networking sites has its own strengths: MySpace is especially popular among teenagers, Facebook is popular with college age people, Orkut is especially loved in Brazil, and CyWorld is the site to visit…

The World's Toughest Exam
Rather than take the final then, they decided to find their professor after the final and explain to him why they missed the exam.
At Georgia Tech (we've also heard this from Duke), there were four sophomores taking Organic Chemistry. They did so well on all the quizzes, the mid-terms and labs, etc. that each had an "A" so far for the semester. These four friends were so confident that the weekend before the finals, they decided to go up to the University…

Dear all members of this wonderful international group,
I am very happy to say that the group is becoming more and more "
intercultural", as a bunch of EFL students from Korea has joined us --thanks to their teacher Sook, who I happened to meet thorough Ruth Vilmi, the creator of the
International Writing Exchanges Project.
